I am also a little nervous since it has been so long. May be I should do some warm ups in the next few weeks.
I am going to go over my intro to reading tarot. This is not how to read tarot but what i tell my clients. I use client cause I am offering a service but I am not usually asking to be paid. Tips are always welcome
Hi there soandso. I am going to be reading your cards today. I do want to let you know a few things. What I see and say is written in sand. Just like life it is not set in stone it all can changed. I suggest using what we learn here as a guide. Now clear your mind and think about what you need assistance with.I did not say I will read your future. Sometimes yes I see what MAY be down the line. But more often I see a general path. I cannot usually tell you if you will marry and have kids. But I may be able to tell that is what you want and identify those who will help or hinder.
My favorite reading was done for a friend who never had her cards read but I needed to practice so she agreed. She has always been one for new experiences. Most of her reading was about settling into her new life (they had just moved to the area a few months before). I am going through picking up on an anxiety, I get to one card and stop. I know this card can mean babies...but she had not said anything about wanting or trying for kids... I giggle and say this card is about a pregnancy but I don't think it could mean that, lets move on and come back to him. we go through the reading and forget to touch back on this card. Well, a month later she announced her pregnancy. I was floored. One, at her amazing poker face, she was pregnant during the reading after all. Two, that my cards knew. She is now a happy mother of 2 very settled in her community.
My other strongest memory for a reading was done in college. I was sitting in the dorm lobby reading for a few friends when a floormate asked to be read. I was hesitant, she was not known for being the most open minded woman. I gave her the above statement and tacked on that once she said stop it all stops. As in all the cards get put back in the deck and the reading comes to a full stop. I will not even try to finish a reading after being asked to stop. She nodded her consent and we started. I will not speak of the reading's subject but I will say it was emotional. I was taking it slow, trying not to upset her. I think we got about half way in and she suddenly said stop. I look up to see her on the verge of tears. I nod quietly gather up the cards and just sit with her for a few moments. She said "Thank you, I did not think this was real. But you just started getting close to implying things I don't want to talk about." She got up and left. She and I were never friends before or after the reading but we were always respectful to each other.
These are always the 2 readings I think of when I return to readings. They show me the scale of what I can do with my cards.
